About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready to become the biggest destructive monster Meeple City has ever seen in "Terror in Meeple City"! Forget diplomacy; here, the goal is to cause chaos with your gigantic, hungry paws. The objective is simple: destroy buildings, devour meeples, and spread panic until the carnage ends. Whoever causes the most damage wins the glory (and the points)!

The buildings are made of floor tiles and meeples that act as pillars. You, as a colossal monster, have a paw disc and a wooden body. Each turn, you have two actions to choose from: move your monster (with a flick of the paw!), demolish buildings by dropping your body on them and collecting the floors without meeples, or even throw vehicles to cause even more destruction. If you're near a building, you can even blow on it to knock down structures!

But beware! If you knock meeples off the city, you might lose teeth (which are worth points!) or give an extra action to another player. Eating meeples is essential, but you can only eat as many as you have teeth. And if you knock down an opponent monster, you steal one of its teeth, preventing it from eating your food! Meeples come in six colors, each representing a type of inhabitant. Collecting sets of six different colors earns you points at the end. Additionally, you score for collected floors, remaining teeth, and secret character objectives.

Each monster has unique powers, with a card that lasts the entire game and a superpower that can be used once. The game also offers optional rules for monsters that evolve, lose points for meeples not collected in sets, and even the possibility of combining two boards for games with up to 8 players. It's pure destructive and strategic fun!
